High-side/low-side differential: 700 VPEAK
0.1 A peak output current
CMOS input threshold levels
High frequency operation: 5 MHz maximum
High common-mode transient immunity: >75 kV/μs
High temperature operation: 105°C
Wide body, RoHS compliant, 16-lead SOIC
UL1577 2500 V rms input-to-output withstand voltage
The ADuM12341 is an isolated, half-bridge gate driver that
employs the Analog Devices, Inc. iCoupler® technology to
provide independent and isolated high-side and low-side
outputs. Combining high speed CMOS and monolithic
transformer technology, this isolation component provides
outstanding performance characteristics superior to
optocoupler-based solutions.
By avoiding the use of LEDs and photodiodes, this iCoupler
gate drive device is able to provide precision timing characteristics
not possible with optocouplers. Furthermore, the reliability and
performance stability problems associated with optocoupler
LEDs are avoided.
APPLICATIONS
Isolated IGBT/MOSFET gate drives
Plasma displays
Industrial inverters
Switching power supplies
In comparison to gate drivers employing high voltage level
translation methodologies, the ADuM1234 offers the benefit
of true, galvanic isolation between the input and each output.
Each output can be operated up to ±700 VPEAK relative to the
input, thereby supporting low-side switching to negative voltages.
The differential voltage between the high side and low side can be
as high as 700 VPEAK.
As a result, the ADuM1234 provides reliable control over the
switching characteristics of IGBT/MOSFET configurations over
a wide range of positive or negative switching voltages.

Figure 8 characterizes the ability of the ADuM1234 to operate
correctly in the presence of linear transients. The data is based
on design simulation and is the maximum linear transient
magnitude that the ADuM1234 can tolerate without an
operational error. This data shows a higher level of robustness
than what is listed in Table 5 because the transient immunity
values obtained in Table 5 use measured data and apply
allowances for measurement error and margin.

INSULATION LIFETIME
All insulation structures eventually break down when subjected
to voltage stress over a sufficiently long period. The rate of
insulation degradation depends on the characteristics of the
voltage waveform applied across the insulation. In addition to
the testing performed by the regulatory agencies, Analog
Devices conducts an extensive set of evaluations to determine
the lifetime of the insulation structure within the ADuM1234.
Analog Devices performs accelerated life testing using voltage
levels higher than the rated continuous working voltage.
Acceleration factors for several operating conditions are
determined. These factors allow calculation of the time to
failure at the actual working voltage. Table 7 summarizes the
peak voltages for 50 years of service life for a bipolar ac
operating condition and the maximum Analog Devices
recommended working voltages. In many cases, the approved
working voltage is higher than the 50-year service life voltage.
Operation at these high working voltages can lead to shortened
insulation life in some cases.
The insulation lifetime of the ADuM1234 depends on the
voltage waveform type imposed across the isolation barrier.
The iCoupler insulation structure degrades at different rates
depending on whether the waveform is bipolar ac, unipolar ac,
or dc. Figure 14, Figure 15, and Figure 16 illustrate these
different isolation voltage waveforms.
Bipolar ac voltage is the most stringent environment. The goal
of a 50-year operating lifetime under the ac bipolar condition

RATED PEAK VOLTAGE
06920-014
06920-005
GNDA/GNDB
In the case of unipolar ac or dc voltage, the stress on the insulation is significantly lower. This allows operation at higher
working voltages while still achieving a 50-year service life.
The working voltages listed in Table 7 can be applied while
maintaining the 50-year minimum lifetime provided the voltage
conforms to either the unipolar ac or dc voltage cases. Any cross
insulation voltage waveform that does not conform to Figure 15
or Figure 16 should be treated as a bipolar ac waveform and its
peak voltage should be limited to the 50-year lifetime voltage
value listed in Table 7. Note that the voltage presented in Figure 15
is shown as sinusoidal for illustration purposes only. It is meant
to represent any voltage waveform varying between 0 V and
some limiting value. The limiting value can be positive or
negative, but the voltage cannot cross 0 V.
